[Chicago-talk] Is this efficient.

I have a short program opens a file and adds a line
from when a certain event takes place. So the file
does not get too big I remove the 1st line in the file
whenever one is added. The only way I know how to do
this is:
system("perl -ni.bak -e 'print unless 1..1'
text.txt");
Is it ineficient to have this system call? If so how
can I modify the code to work w/o the system (from
with the program)?
Thanks you for the help.
